Porsche Carrera GT Auction Records Shattered in 2026

In 2026, the Porsche Carrera GT achieved three auction milestones in just five weeks, with values more than tripling from the former peak of $2.2 million. The initial record occurred in late January at RM Sotheby's Arizona Car Week, where a Seal Grey Metallic model sold for $3.085 million. Following this, a low-mileage GT Silver Metallic from the Drift Capital Collection brought in $3.305 million at RM Sotheby's Miami sale in late February. A week later, a Gulf Blue paint-to-sample version fetched $6.715 million at Broad Arrow's Amelia Island auction, while another sold for $3.113 million at Gooding Christie's during the same event. Produced from 2003 to 2006, the Carrera GT boasts a 5.7-liter V-10 engine with 605 hp and a six-speed manual transmission, appealing to collectors as a rare analog supercar. With fewer than 60 paint-to-sample units, these have outperformed standard-color variants. Broad Arrow's auction vice president, Barney Ruprecht, mentioned they anticipated a record but were surprised by the $6.715 million figure. Michael Caimano from RM Sotheby's referred to it as the last true analog supercar. Drift Capital founder Eden Cooper highlighted the growing collector interest in analog vehicles and their investment potential.
